Biden tries to remove federal gas tax for the summer. June 22, 2022 9:21 am RobVG

Trump and Biden threw money at the economy during the pandemic by writing checks to the American people. Now Biden is try to do the same with gas.

Most people have the option of driving less and tightening their belts. But the high price of gas doesn’t effect everyone the same. People on food stamps go hungry. Maybe increase food subsidies and let those of us who can absorb the cost of driving do so.
